“Verily they are hatching up a plot and I too am preparing a plan. So give respite to the disbelievers, and leave them alone a while”
Abu Baseer said, I asked Imam Sadiq (as) about the verse, “Then he shall have no power nor helper” (Chapter 86 verse 10).
Imam (as) replied, It means that he (mankind) will have “no power” over his Creator nor will he have any “helper” to help him against the Will of Allah.
I asked about the verse, “Verily they are hatching up a plot and i too am preparing a plan. So give respite to the disbelievers, and leave them alone a while”.
Imam (as) replied, “They hatched “a plot” against the Messenger of Allah (sawa), Ali (as), and Fatemah (sa). So Allah said, “O Mohammed! ‘Verily they are hatching up a plot and I too am preparing a plan. So give respite to the disbelievers, and leave them alone a while”
(This verse) means (“give respite”) until the time of the rising of the Qaem (as), who will seek revenge on behalf of Allah against the oppressors and the idols from among the Quraysh, the Bani Umayyah, and the rest of mankind. (Tafseer Al Qummi volume 2 page 416)
